The Bashneft company (part of the Rosneft structure) continues large-scale greening of the Republic of Bashkortostan. In the spring of 2025, the company’s employees planted over 41 thousand tree seedlings in the region.
As part of the environmental campaigns, seedlings of various tree species adapted to the climatic conditions of the regions were used. All work was carried out under the supervision of regional forestry departments.
The Asly-Kul Nature Park in the Davlekanovsky District of Bashkiria is a specially protected natural area and an important recreational site. Bashkir oil workers planted 24 thousand pine seedlings as part of the all-Russian patriotic campaign “Garden of Memory”. This is a continuation of the annual program aimed at preventing swamping of Aslikul, the largest lake in the republic. The campaign makes a significant contribution to strengthening the ecosystem and preserving the unique natural complex of the reservoir. The employees of the Bashneft-Dobycha enterprise (Bashneft’s oil and gas production operator) have been systematically restoring the forest frame of Lake Aslikul since 2023. Thanks to the efforts of oil workers, over 100 thousand pine and larch seedlings have already been planted on the territory of the nature park, which in a few years will form four massive forest areas with a total area of 25 hectares.
The importance of Bashneft’s initiative is also confirmed by experts from the Biology Research Center of the Ufa Federal Research Center of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Scientists have established that the creation of a coniferous forest in the northwestern part of Lake Aslikul will help stop the swamping of the shores and preserve the reservoir for future generations.
In addition, workers of the Bashneft-Novoil plant cleared the shores of the lake from household waste as part of the federal environmental project “Water of Russia”. The anthropogenic load on the coastal area is high, since the reservoir is very popular with tourists. During the campaign, almost 22 kilometers of the coast were cleared.
In just the last 5 years, thanks to the initiatives of Bashkir oil workers, more than 5.2 million trees have been planted on an area of over 1.5 thousand hectares. Young green areas will soon form full-fledged coniferous forests, which will contribute to the restoration and preservation of the ecological balance of the territories.
Preserving the environment for future generations is an integral part of Rosneft’s corporate culture. The company implements large-scale environmental programs aimed at minimizing the impact on the environment, improving the environmental friendliness of production, preserving and replenishing natural ecosystems.
